I've just bought a five year old GTS300. The plan (at the moment) is to ride it to VWD in Croatia next month.
Mechanically its perfect with a full service history. I got it for a very good price because the underneath is pretty nasty. The steel is still sound but the paint has long gone and there's one very small hole.
I've attacked it with a wire brush on an electric drill and I'm going to paint it with a Phosphoric acid based treatment once I've removed as much as I can.
Has anyone got any recommendations of what to paint over it after that? I appreciate that ideally it wants stripping and blasting but this is just a quick fixer upper to get me to Croatia and back and then through an MOT or two.
